Have you thought about expanding your operation , maybe feeding the school kids in your community , especially now that winter is on its way ?
Believe it or not , I was approached by a woman on the Northpine shop stoep asking if I ’ m the lady from the soup kitchen . She suggested we start serving kids ( especially those who don ’ t have a slice of bread to take to school ).
What has being the most difficult obstacles you ’ ve faced since you ’ ve started running the soup kitchen ?
In serving others , there are no obstacles . We take in our stride to help where we can . However , I ’ ve wanted to give up and my husband said ‘ NO ’. His words were , you can ’ t start something and give up . Without his support I ’ m sure I would have given up already .
How has the community responded to Michelle ’ s soup kitchen ?
The community we live in ? We ’ ve had many people say they would like to help , but to this day , I haven ’ t heard from them , but that won ’ t stop us from doing what we ’ re doing .
What are your goals for Michelle ’ s soup kitchen ?
I haven ’ t thought that far . We ’ re taking it one step at a time . We have members of The love Christ Church who come once a month to encourage and pray for our people .
